"Afternoon Delight" was one of Sue Garman's favorite patterns. This wonderfully scrappy quilt is truly a delight to make with its combination of simple appliqué and Double Nine-Patch blocks and modified Shoo Fly blocks. Each month you will work on pieced and appliquéd blocks, and in the final month, you will assemble the blocks and add the outer border. The finished quilt measures approximately 86 1/2" inches square.

Let's use this Topic "Afernoon Delight Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful blocks. That way, you know where to come to see what everyone is doing.

The topics that apply to each month are a good place to ask questions or make suggestions for each block.

AND when you post your photos to Social Media, like Instagram, Facebook, etc., use either of these hash tags so everyone there will be able to find our wonderful work:

Your blocks are stunning perfect fussy cutting of your fabric choices and your workmanship is admirable. What appliqué technique are you using needle turn? Backbasting? Just love it!

A happy coincidence! I have admired Sue Garman's work for many years. Just prior to the New Year, I viewed the "Afternoon Delight" quilt at the New England Quilt Museum as part of an exhibit of her work. To have this quilt be the TQS 2020 BOM is icing on the cake. I love the timeless appeal of this beautiful folk art quilt and look forward to spending pleasant time on this project knowing there is a TQS support system of advice and tips in place :)

The blocks for January are attached.

Sandy, Nice job. I didn't even think of using the same color for my stitching; great idea.

I have completed two more of my January applique blocks. I used the Appliquick tools and glue to prepare them and I had no trouble with my needle going through the glued edges.

So happy! Finished my January applique blocks today. This is probably the most hand applique I've ever done, so I guess this quilt will be quite something for me.

PS washed the first 2 blocks, too much work to press, lol, so I'll trim when done and wash and press when the quilt top is done.

Here are my blocks. I may not use the first one as it doesn't really go with the others.

I put my month 1 blocks in the specific topics and forgot to put them here so here are my month 1 blocks. It will be awhile before I have the month 2 blocks done.
